median definition

The median is the middle number in a sorted, ascending or descending, list of numbers and can be more descriptive of that data set than the average. The median is sometimes used as opposed to the mean when there are outliers in the sequence that might skew the average of the values.

median

// Find the median of an array of numbers
function findMedian(numbers) {
  // If length of numbers is even, average the two middle numbers
  if(numbers.length % 2 === 0) {
    // Get lower middle number by dividing length by 2 and subtracting 1
    var lowerMiddle = numbers[numbers.length / 2 - 1];
    // Get upper middle number by dividing length by 2
    var upperMiddle = numbers[numbers.length / 2];
    // Return average of lower and upper middle numbers
    return (lowerMiddle + upperMiddle) / 2;
  }
  // If length of numbers is odd, return middle value by dividing length - 1 by 2 to get index
  return numbers[(numbers.length - 1) / 2];
